Systems and methods for smart temperature control devices

A method of operating a temperature control system, the method comprising:

• determining, via processing circuitry of the temperature control system, an operating parameter of a temperature control device based on historical data of an operating variable, the operating parameter comprising an upper time limit variable, the historical data of the operating variable comprising historical data of a temperature, and a current operating variable comprising a current temperature within a container, the operating parameter determined by:
• accessing the historical data of the temperature;
• determining a duration of a peak temperature cycle within the historical data of the temperature;
• determining a selected time value based on the duration of the peak temperature cycle;
• and
• updating an upper time limit variable with the selected time value;
• monitoring, via the processing circuitry, a current operating variable of the temperature control system;
• and
• transmitting, via the processing circuitry, a notification in response to detecting an abnormal event based on the current operating variable and the operating parameters.
